Does anyone know how to do looping -- either for playback or recording-- with tape? Thanks --jk

oops -- I missed your second reply. I like what you said though. What kind of mixer are you using?

How dare you contradict me, RSMITH123???!! By the way, since I am a hippocrite in constant search of the next best mousetrap I can pour my $ into, I have returned the Korg to SamAsh-- I was just actually auditioning it (for 2 weeks!). I used it for one gig and it worked out real well...

cereal: Will pick up the D1600 again @ ash. Sad, perhaps. Not a MAC, to be sure. Not PT or DP. But it does have 24 bit recording, EXCELLENT sounding converters, editing, faders, burns CDs: all for $1600. I already used it to record a live concert of my theater group. Burnt 2 CDS & they came...

cereal: Its the backside L3 cache. You get a Meg of it on the original 733s and none of it on the ones they are selling for $1695. Unfortunately, based on what I have learned, cache memory and it's clock speed IS a big deal to audio apps--just search on 'cache' on this BBS. Also, look at the...

cereal: Thanks for the g4 store link!. I was going by the applestore (http://www.applestore.com) prices. Their 733s are different animals entirely, and they are going for $1,699 with a major cuts in cache, significant cuts in ram and HD space. And no superdrive. You are right about the g4...

Hey cereal: :eek: You sure that it wasn't•256K L2 & 1MB L3 cache-- I checked out the sweetwater site. They have the old G4s still. I don't mean to be a downer. I just don't want to see Steve Jobs take you over the barrel again... like he done me many a time. xxoo -jk

stu: because I am at work, with nothing better to do, I have thought of another test you can run: What happens when, as opposed to punching in/out, you do regular recording in the following way: start with input level at the lowest point (on both the PT side and the mixer side), start recording...

stu-- Let me modify that a little. If you weren't going direct from your amp to your card (i.e. you were micing the amp) you probably don't need to test the direct thing. But if you really want to test it (and your amp has a direct output) I would turn the amp output way down at first and be...

stu: ".....i know it sounds funny, but hey, you never know, and it was easy enough" Good thinking. That's exactly what I am talking about. You are in the right frame of mind now. Don't be afraid to try what seem like stupid ideas. You could also try rigging the whole thing up in someone...

I am soo confused... Help... I am trying to remember the old 733 configuration-- did anyone save it by any chance??? Damnit! I used to scour that website daily looking for a price change. I should have known that they would reconfigure all their boxes!!! Here is the new 733 config...

I just reread the specs at applestore. Looks to me like they are playing us a bit. The memory on the 733 seems to be less than it was before the price cut. I don't actually remember what it was before, but I think that there was both L2 and L3 cache on it, and there was more SDRAM. So the...

They dropped Well, they just dropped, thank God. I think I am gonna get me a 733 now. -jk

I think that's because it sounds pathetic. And most of us relate to that very much.

I agree, cereal-- I have been lusting for the 733 mhz machine for a long time, and the price has finally dropped on it. Thank God the recession finally kicked in for Apple! I'm so excited, I returned my Korg D1600 to Sam Ash, and I am gonna get a MAC!! Uh, next pay period, that is.

stu: eliminate the obvious The only way you can, er, the only way *I* can troubleshoot like this is to, one by one, eliminate one potential source after another. BUT, I always try to "eliminate the obvious" first. Another way of saying it is, "confirm the things I think I am already sure of"...

PPS: Remember, I am talking about simultaneous tracks, not total tracks, which is around 8 times that amount, I think.

PS that halving of tracks business when you go from 16 to 24 bit seems to be standard across all these brands.

I just got one 2 wks ago and already used it to record a live concert. I burned the CD and it sounds absolutely awesome. Before I got it, I read up, then talked to some studio engineers who I respect. I only heard good stuff. One guy said that he thought it sounded better than the Yamaha...

Thanks guys.
